ILLENIUM headlines Dobson Arena in Vail on Friday, December 11, 2026, with special guests St. Mary and Paws, presented by Stifel Birds of Prey, the Vail Valley Foundation, the Town of Vail, Vail Resorts and AEG Rocky Mountain.

Who is ILLENIUM?

ILLENIUM is the project of Nick Miller, a Denver-based, GRAMMY-nominated and multi-platinum electronic artist. The Birds of Prey event page says his fifth studio album, Odyssey, came out in 2026, backed by a nine-show residency at Sphere in Las Vegas.

Is the ILLENIUM show 18+ or all ages?

The organizer lists it as ages 18 and up. Discover Vail's listing describes it as all ages, so go by the age policy on your ticket and bring ID.

How do you get ILLENIUM tickets?

Buy through the official links on the Birds of Prey event page, which lists general admission and VIP options and currently shows limited availability. Stick to the official links rather than resale sites.

What else is happening that weekend?

The concert lands during Birds of Prey week at Beaver Creek, which runs December 3 to 13, 2026. The women's downhill races are on December 11 and 12. If you are going to both, see how far Beaver Creek is from Vail. The show is also part of the first season at the renovated Dobson Arena, a more than $55 million transformation according to Discover Vail. Other shows there this winter include the Dobson Arena reopening concert and Ian Asher in January.

Where is Dobson Arena?

Dobson Arena is at 320 E Lionshead Circle in Lionshead Village. Vail's free in-town bus is the easy way in on a busy night.
